Seven Top-Notch Apartment Gyms to Check Out in 2020
Hey, D-FW; Lily and Kara, here from Dallasites101! The new year is almost here and with it, the perfect time to figure out your resolutions! We know that resolutions a lot of time center around the two big f’s – finances and fitness. So, to make it easier for you, we rounded up the apartments with some of the best fitness amenities offered to residents in 2020 (two birds, one rent payment).
Trust us, you won’t even need a gym membership with our picks!
Axis Wycliff
“Modern Apartments with Timeless elegance.” The Axis on Wycliff, located in Turtle Creek, boasts modern details and cool interior tones, giving it a very luxurious vibe. Axis is also home to a two-level fitness facility. The bottom floor is cardio central, hosting all your treadmills, ellipticals, and a few arm/leg machines while the top floor has tons of floor space for stretching, HIIT workouts, and stationary bikes for cycling. Oh! And, it overlooks the pool, and working out with a pool view is always the best.
The Gallery at Turtle Creek
Also located in Turtle Creek, The Gallery is another great pick! Besides having amenities like a rooftop terrace, a dog run with a built-in grooming station (wow – lifesaver), they also feature a double-decker gym for residents! The bottom floor is filled with treadmills, ellipticals, cycles, and exercise balls, with weight machines and more treadmills residing upstairs. They’ve got everything you need to get a great workout in – a dumbbell rack, a barbell, and a multi-purpose weight machine that allows you to use it for back exercises, arm exercises or chest exercises. The *actual* best part about this gym? The floor-to-ceiling windows!
The Alexan Lower Greenville
New to the Lower Greenville area, The Alexan Lower Greenville was inspired by “crafts-man modern living,” which makes the property very congenial and easy-going for young professionals and new families. Plus, do you know what’s better than one fitness room? TWO fitness rooms! The first fitness room offers treadmills, a stair stepper, a resistance band rack, exercise balls, a dumbbell rack, and a few arm and chest weight machines. The second offers cycling machines that have access to Gym RAX, which is a similar workout program to Peloton. Living here would mean not only having access to two fitness rooms but also to the Greenville neighborhood for outdoor runs and strolls.
The Katy – Victory Park
Located between South Victory and the Design District, The Katy is a gorgeous high rise with the most spectacular views! Seriously, every detail about this place is luxurious, including their fitness room, complete with a skyline view. The gym room has your typical work out equipment but more advanced, with Technogym equipment. But it’s the fitness room that really stands out with the Peloton bikes, studio classes, and private rooms!
The Ardan
Located on Blackburn in West Village sits The Ardan! Cloaked in style and art, this property is definitely one of a kind, and the fitness amenities are some of our personal faves. Of course, the fitness center and spa amenities are state-of-the-art. Their fitness center is filled with Technogym equipment and Peloton bikes, but it doesn’t stop there. There’s also a wellness spa that includes individual massage rooms, a sauna, steam room, hot tub, and a cold plunge!
The Mondrian Cityplace
Another goodie located on Blackburn in West Village – The Mondrian offers what feels like a small local gym. The fitness center floor plan is super spacious and offers residents several weighted body machines, back, chest and arms, and legs. There are also treadmills, ellipticals, stair stepper, a dumbbell rack, and a barbell, not to mention, great views of the city!
The Christopher At The Union
Described as “the edge of elegance,” The Christopher is stunning! The fitness area may seem somewhat general when it comes to the equipment but what makes it great is the spin room that allows you to have an interactive experience as if you were in a class. Additionally, they offer residents a beautiful locker room filled with showers and towels!
